How much protein do you need per day? To Build Muscle? To Lose Weight?

Thank you.

Your video makes absolutely no sense. You state the 1grm per pound of body weight is not correct because you don’t want to support fat, just lean body weight. For example 150 lbs 24% bf = 114 lbs. however, you go on to say that a more accurate way would be one to 1.4 g of protein per lean bodyweight. In this example 1.4 g times 114 pounds of lean bodyweight would be 159 g of protein per day, which is actually more than 1 g per pound 🤦🏻‍♂️

The guy dk what his talking about. Do 0.7 x 200. That'll be 140 grams of protein. That's what you need can go little bit higher like 145 200g is dumb

I ate 2.2 g of protein per kg when bulkikg up . And 2.5 when cutting.Great numbers! If you are very fat eat 2g of protein per kg you want to achieve.For example if you are 100 kg and you wanna be lean at 70 eat 140g to 170 g of protein daily

im 17, and i weight 100 pounds, my height is 5feet, 4inches, i dont know how much protein i should eat per day?

In other words, no one knows.

Since when did 0.8g per kg make people waste away? The required amounts of protein for people varied between 0.5-0.8 g per kg, so the guideline was 0.8 to play safe and include everyone. 0.8g per kg of bodyweight is OVER the basic needed amount for 97.5% of people. So how will they waste away? Starting with a lie in your statement makes me disregard the rest

Okay what if you want to lose fat, lose muscle, lose weight.... What do I do

I’m looking to lose weight . I weight 246 and am 6’2. I keep checking videos to see how much protein I should be eating , so many different things out here.

Such lame recommendations. You go in a complete circle.
Male 150lbs 24% bf -
1 gram per lbs = 150 grams.
1.4 grams per LEAN (115lbs) lbs = 160 grams
🤦🏻‍♂️

I got 170g when calculating off of LBM. It seems like a lot.
Maybe I can get in 100g on a day with good sized meals. After that I'd still have to chug around 3 protein shakes to get 170g.

Maybe if I'm a big body builder it's not a lot, but for a guy doing a more casual training to gain some muscle mass and strength it seems a lot.
I've noticed the same on all calculator I've tried.

Babies grow at a very fast rate .....their diet ?

Super helpful video! Thank you!

You got it right im a stick too 1.2lb pound of bodymass

I try to shoot for 150g a day. If you’re active with weekly weights and cardio you need to be body slamming protein. Drink shakes, eat yogurt, and do whatever to load yourself with protein. Your muscles aren’t gonna grow themselves 😄💪🏽

Whats 70kg 😒

I do 2g per pound of lean mass, works best for me, and is more budget friendly

I would love to see average Joe gym goer choke down 124-173 grams of protien a day. He won't be able to sustain it. I eat about 3/4 pound of 80/20 hamburger, 3-4 eggs and 24 grams of protein shake a day. I take in between 85-105 grams of protien a day. Leucine is the key. 4 grams daily along with 5 grams creatine daily. I jacked my protien up to 130 and my blood tests were whacked out. I pissed a lot of protien/money in the toilet!

incredible content

Thank you

Thank you! After watching this video I realized I've barely been hitting the baseline for my body type and working out in utter anguish because of it... I gotta eat waayyy more

He dosent know where the 1.0 grams per lb of body weight came from. I'll tell you where. It's came from the same companies trying to sell you protien shakes lol. This 1.0 g formula is very dubious since it encourages you to spend alot more money on they're product

The steroids on this guy.

Thank you for this video, very clear and informative. Helped me to realise I have been over eating, thinking I needed a huge amount of protein.

So if you weigh 200 lbs you would take 200 grams of protein a day? That's a little crazy isn't it?

get a body fat clipper. Those are the most accurate measure for fat imo

Could you plz elaborate the max protein required to stimulate the MPS in each meal ?

1g per kg is way too much, I don't have time in the day to eat this much protein, its just too much and I'm exercising every day, its just exaggerated, I still think that around 1.2g per KG is the best

I like to get around 1 gram of "HIGH quality" protein per 1 pound of body weight and the rest can be plant-based protein like oats and veggies so i weight 170lbs at 15%bf i take in 170g of animal-based protien sources and the extra 30 grams of protein i take in comes from my vegetables i take in around 190-200 grams each day

What if you are intermittent fasting? Is it good enough to get the proper amount of protein per day in one or two meals? And this is if you are not trying to be a bodybuilder but simply get lean and build muscle.

i’m 6’1 150 and i probably eat like 100 a day maybe

itt all depends on HOW HARD YOU TRAIN!!! & HOW MANY DAYS!! FOR 150 LB TRAING 5 to 6 days a week 1.6 grams or 240grams & on HEAVY DAYS 300 GRAMS ,,,vitamins &ADD BANNANAS ,,APPLE,,BLUEBERRY,,SPINACH,,NUTS,,etccc to 2 to 3 protien drinks per day

awesome info! i have always love eating and that made me lose weight super hard, tried a lot of diets and exercises along with it, but what made it possible was agoge diet. it changed my life. its always about the right diet for u

I'm 156 pounds so how much protein i supposed to eat a day

Love the scientific approach to this and appreciate the visual references, liked and subbed man!

gonna try, thank you ?

I wish people could just be fit without dieting and working out ??

Anyone looking to build muscle fast should definitely try the Agoge diet. It worked great for me.

Not only I lost fat and gained muscle, but I feel more energized and productive throughout the day. My sleep has also improved drastically. Website called Agoge diet really changed my life for the better.

The Agoge diet is truly something else, do not know why, but somehow it worked better than anything else I tried for building muscle.

Hey so I didn’t really understand if I weigh 143 with 30-33% body fat how much protein do I need to lose fat and build muscle at the same time?

Do these numbers apply to people with hypertension? 1gram per pound?

So if I weight 64kg (140 pounds) and follow the 1g of protein per pound of body weight then I should aim to eat around 140pounds of protein daily?? Or is it 1.6kg x 64kg = 102g. Which one is it??

Also came here from Jeff Nippard's video, staying for the awesome videos & baby 😆. As an RD I SO appreciate the evidence-based approach. 🙌

Also came from NIppard's channel... will be sticking around, as this channel has an adorable baby on it, which none of my other fitness info channels can compete with.

Here because of Jeff Nippard posture video and I'm sure I'm gonna stay for long
Amazing video quality, thank you!
